- Monday, April 29, 12:59 PM As goes Apple, so goes Cirrus Logic (CRUS +7.1%). The audio codec chipmaker is taking off in sympathy with the customer than made up 85% of its March quarter revenue, one trading day after getting clocked due to downbeat remarks about FY14 sales. Likewise, iPhone/Galaxy S4 supplier Skyworks (SWKS +3.4%) is rallying following a post-earnings Friday decline caused by mixed guidance, and so is rival RF Micro (RFMD +3.2%). Broadcom (BRCM +2.5%), meanwhile, is adding to last week's strong post-earnings gains, fueled by a Q1 beat and solid guidance. The gains come even as another Apple supplier, Nam Tai, gets crushed due to weak guidance. Comment! [Tech, On the Move]
- Saturday, April 27, 11:03 AM Qualcomm (QCOM) managed to get 6 chips in the U.S. version of Samsung's (SSNLF.PK) Galaxy S4, per iFixit's teardown: the high-end APQ8064 app processor, a 4G baseband chip, an audio codec chip, an RF transceiver (beating out SIMO), and 2 power management ICs; the U.K. version uses a Snapdragon 600 baseband/app processor. Also found: a MXIM microcontroller, an SIMG video transmitter, a SWKS 2G power amplifier module, a BRCM NFC chip (likely to go with a combo chip), ATML and SYNA touch controllers, and Toshiba (TOSBF.PK) NAND flash (previous). (Chinese S4 teardown) (Galaxy S III teardown) (also) 4 Comments [Tech]
- Friday, April 26, 12:43 PM In spite of an FQ2 beat, Skyworks (SWKS -3.6%) is selling off, as the Street looks unfavorably on guidance for FQ3 revenue of $435M and EPS of $0.53 (consensus is $443.2M and $0.52). Though EPS is expected to get a boost from a 130-180 bps Q/Q increase in gross margin, the revenue guidance might be a sign Samsung strength isn't enough to offset Apple weakness. On its earnings call, Skyworks claimed a "strategic transition from some lower margin components ... towards more margin-rich custom solutions" is responsible. Apple image sensor supplier OmniVision (OVTI -2.8%) is also off, possibly thanks to both Skyworks and Cirrus Logic. (TriQuint) (RF Micro) Comment! [Tech, Earnings, On the Move]
- Thursday, April 25, 5:49 PM Skyworks (SWKS): FQ2 EPS of $0.48 beats by $0.01. Revenue of $425.2M (+17% Y/Y) beats by $4.83M. Shares +1.6% AH. (PR) Comment! [Earnings, Breaking News, Tech, On the Move]
- Thursday, April 25, 12:18 PM Low expectations are aiding iPhone supplier TriQuint (TQNT +10.7%), which is surging after missing Q1 estimates and guiding for Q2 revenue of $185M-$190M and EPS of -$0.10 to -$0.12, below a consensus of $194.8M and -$0.08. On its earnings call, TriQuint noted mobile sales (57% of total) fell 30% Q/Q thanks to "seasonally low demand from our largest customer" (almost certainly Apple), but added sales to all other top-5 mobile clients grew, and claimed strong demand for advanced 4G power amplifiers and filters. Possibly up in sympathy: SWKS +2.7%. RFMD +1.6%. CRUS +3%.10.1% of TriQuint's float was shorted as of March 28. Comment! [Tech, Earnings, On the Move]

[Earnings]
- Wednesday, April 24, 12:28 PM Are wireless chip stocks decoupling from Apple? Even with Apple off slightly as bleak June quarter guidance outweighs fresh capital returns, iPhone/iPad combo chip supplier Broadcom (BRCM +6.6%) is surging thanks to a Q1 beat and strong Q2 guidance, and is helping out some peers - QCOM +1.4%, SWKS +2.6%, INVN +1.8%, SNDK +1%. During its earnings call, Broadcom, which also provides combo chips for many Samsung phones, stated mobile chip sales only fell 1.6% Q/Q in seasonally weak Q1, and forecast sequential growth for the business (Apple-dependent Cirrus Logic sure isn't doing the same). Qualcomm reports after the close. 4 Comments [Tech, Earnings, On the Move]
- Wednesday, April 17, 9:11 AM Apple (AAPL) -1.2% after Cirrus Logic (CRUS), which gets over half of its revenue from the company, issues a revenue warning for the March and June quarters (FQ4 and FQ1). Though Cirrus' FQ4 revenue forecast of $206.9M is only a little below a $210.2M consensus, its FQ1 forecast of $150M-$170M is well below a $195.2M consensus. The audio codec chipmaker also says it will take a $23.3M write-down, $20.7M of which is due to "a decreased forecast for a high volume product" as a customer (quite possibly Apple) migrates to a new component (could be a sign of a new iPhone). SWKS -2.2%. QCOM -0.9%. 8 Comments [Tech, Earnings, On the Move]
- Tuesday, March 26, 9:53 AM "Sustained content increases look likely, including at top customers Samsung and Apple ... RFMD appears well positioned to capitalize on expanding RF complexity with its 'systems-level' approach." writes Oppenheimer's Rick Schafer, explaining his upgrade of RF Micro (RFMD +8.2%). He's raising his estimates on account of the chipmaker's Galaxy S IV design wins and high-end tuner/RF switch opportunities. Shares are close to their 52-week high. Skyworks (SWKS +2.1%) and Anadigics (ANAD +3.1%) appear to be rallying in sympathy. Comment! [Tech, On the Move, Quick Ideas]
- Friday, March 15, 1:38 PM A Chinese site has already torn down a local version of Samsung's Galaxy S IV. Discovered parts include a Qualcomm (QCOM) 3G baseband chip, an Intel (INTC) baseband chip and RF transceiver, TriQuint (TQNT) and Skyworks (SWKS) power amplifiers, Synaptics (SYNA) and Atmel (ATML) controllers, and a Broadcom (BRCM) GPS receiver. A Qualcomm baseband/app processor is expected in the U.S. version. RBC thinks thinks 70M S IV units could be sold this year, and sees Broadcom (NFC chip and a combo chip with high-speed Wi-Fi to go with the GPS chip) and Maxim (MXIM - power management and infrared chips) benefiting. 4 Comments [Tech]
- Friday, March 15, 12:29 PM Samsung's Galaxy S IV contains several RF Micro (RFMD +5.2%) components, RF Micro effectively brags in an PR that's lifting shares. Though RF Micro doesn't mention the S IV by name, the fact the PR (which follows yesterday's S IV launch) states the chips - a 3G/4G power amplifier, multiple standalone 4G amplifiers, and an antenna control chip - will go into a "recently-announced fourth-generation flagship smartphone platform" from a leading manufacturer leaves little doubt as to what's being discussed. Skyworks (SWKS -1.5%), an important S III supplier (and perhaps an S IV supplier as well), is lower. 2 Comments [Tech]
- Wednesday, March 6, 9:40 AM More on Apple: Berenberg's Adnaan Ahmad has downgraded shares to Sell from Buy, while also cutting his rating on Samsung (SSNLF.PK). With smartphone growth now fueled by emerging markets, "Apple and Samsung margins are peaking and growth is going to be driven by the margin-dilutive mid-to-low-end segment," he argues. Also, Citi has cut its PT to $480, citing weaker iPhone 5 and regular iPad demand. Citi, which cut Apple to Neutral in December, now expects March and June quarter iPhone sales of 34M and 25M, below a consensus of 37M and 32M. AAPL -0.2%. 23 Comments [Tech]
- Wednesday, March 6, 9:13 AM Foxconn has begun production of an iPhone 5S (AAPL) that looks much like the iPhone 5, claims Japanese blog MacOtakara, which has a mixed track record (I, II) with iScoops. MacOtakara also reports NTT DoCoMo (DCM) has slashed Android phone orders for the fall, which is fueling speculation an iPhone deal is on the way. Jefferies' Peter Misek argued last month preparation for March iPhone 5S production could be responsible for new iPhone order cuts. Possible/likely suppliers: CRUS, OVTI, SWKS, TQNT, AVGO, QCOM, BRCM, NTE, MFLX, LPL. (yesterday) 29 Comments [Tech]
- Tuesday, March 5, 10:12 AM Samsung's (SSNLF.PK) Galaxy S IV is coming into focus. EVLeaks, a pretty reputable source of gadget scoops, reports the device will have a 5" 1080p OLED display, a 13MP camera, and 2GB of RAM (generally in-line with past rumors). Meanwhile, the NYT reports the S IV, set to be unveiled on March 14, will feature the ability to "track a user’s eyes to determine where to scroll." Possible/likely suppliers: PANL, MXIM, SWKS, ADNC. QCOM might supply a Snaprdragon processor for the U.S. version, but Samsung's Exynos Octa appears to power the international version. 3 Comments [Tech]
- Friday, March 1, 10:40 AM Apple (AAPL -1.8%) and its suppliers slump after iPhone/iPad image sensor provider OmniVision (OVTI -10.9%) issues light guidance to go with its FQ3 beat. CRUS -4.2%. SWKS -1.9%. TQNT -1.7%. AVGO -2%. RFMD -3.2%. BRCM -1.6%. On its FQ3 call, OmniVision would only attribute the guidance to "a seasonal trend of business," while adding smartphone market share trends are "highly, highly volatile right now." Like virtually all other Apple suppliers, OmniVision never mentions Apple by name. 21 Comments [Tech, On the Move, Earnings]
